Geocache Description:


"...School these days, you'd have to be a fool these days, to want to go to school these days, school these days..."
-Chris Lilley (Mr G)

I am sure you would all remember when you went to school, and had to do a research project. So, for this cache, I am going to get you to relive these memories, by getting you to research some things regarding topics which may arise in various different common school subjects - however, if you are lucky, you may not need to research. You must then use these answers to determine the co-ords for the final cache location.

*CHEMISTRY*
The atomic mass of lithium (round to a whole number)

*ENGLISH*
The last digit of the year in which the author of "A Doll's House" was born. [For example, if the author was born in 1973, you would only use the digit 3].

*BIOLOGY*
Which order consumer is the eagle?

*LEGAL STUDIES*
How many houses of Parliament are there?

*HISTORY*
The last digit of the year in which Austria declared war on Serbia.

Using these answers, calculate the final cache co-ords:
S 34 (biology)(english).(biology)(chemistry)(english)
E 138 (history)(history).(english)(legal studies)0

NOTE: The cache is not at the given co-ords. The actual cache is located along a hill, and the provided co-ords are for the top of this hill - access the cache from these co-ords to get the full effect of the view that is provided. At the bottom of the hill is a well known school which has a few different campuses scattered across the area, altogether comprising of approximately 5, 000 students.

The cache you seek is a 2L clear sistema container. The cache has a school theme, and when placed, the cache contained various back to school stationery needs.
When swapping, if possible, please keep to a school theme.
